Title: iPad 1 or... Post by: jjandellis on May 01, 2013, 12:45:48 PM I've decided, at the risk of looking a super NIT, that I need a tablet to watch videos on whilst I'm playing live cash - namely a shedload of deucescracked vids I've been wanting to watch.
I've been offered an iPad1 for £150. 16gb wifi. I don't need 3g as I have a smartphone and no intention to use the tablet for anything but videos...and maybe Stars... Is an iPad1 fit for purpose, or a little outdated? Is the price offered good value? Would any of the other lower end tablets do the job for cheaper? Thanks in advance for all advice!

I sold mine to my mate when I upgraded to a 3 and he is very happy with it, uses it for surfing and watching stuff basically. Not sure about the price, check ebay/amazon for comparison I guess.

It's a really well designed cover and makes a huge difference to ease of use.
